Alkali metal electrochemical cell with improved energy density

An alkali metal/solid cathode electrochemical cell, particularly a Li/CFx cell, having an electrolyte-to-cathode (E/C) weight ratio of about 0.94 to 0.96, and an anode-to-cathode (A/C) capacity ratio of about 1.03, is described. These ratios provide the cell with an improvement of about 6.7% in term...

More Information
Summary:An alkali metal/solid cathode electrochemical cell, particularly a Li/CFx cell, having an electrolyte-to-cathode (E/C) weight ratio of about 0.94 to 0.96, and an anode-to-cathode (A/C) capacity ratio of about 1.03, is described. These ratios provide the cell with an improvement of about 6.7% in terms of volumetric energy density and about 11.9% in terms of gravimetric energy density over prior art Li/CFx cells.
